Make sure you are speaking from a lflow—very nice job of taglining your argument—how have you proved that drones do this
2nd—look up more, but great level of detail—nice, threats argument
Rebuttal Redos 8/17
1--be forceful, look up, be clear about the order as you do it in the beginning of the speech--when you "flow something through" you need to explain and impact it--instead of "in response to this we have an imact turn" "we are impact turning their XXXX argument"
2--really nice efficiency and clarity to your argumentts the second time around (tagline is EXCELLENT)
Advocacy Drills Friday 8/8
--perm doesn’t solve AND its not possible
--need to explain why the cp is not cheating, why are conditions real world or education
--making impact comparisons
Rebuttal Redo (Kehl)
You did a good job of breaking away from the line by line and really summarizing what happened on each argument and why you are winning that argument. The next step is to contextualize why winning that argument means that you win the round. Explain via impact calculus why it matters for the round that non-native english speakers get left behind, why does that outweigh everything the aff is going for?
All in all the aff case is okay, although you have staked out extra topical plan. We still want to work on impacts though, for instance, on the heg advantage try to be more specific about where in the world an increase in US heg would be helpful. Negative case has some good ideas, but needs some more work on structure, as is the uniqueness is going the wrong way and the K criticizes imperialism but says that the impact is increased heg, this doesn't make any sense. The aff is still a little in the knee jerk reaction stage, which is to just argue against everything the neg said, when if you see what's going on strategically, you don't need to do that. For instance pointing out that their uniqueness goes the wrong way for them means you don't need to argue uniqueness going the opposite way. Everyone needs a little more work on time allocation, that means taking questions and also recognizing which arguments are important and which aren't (for instance this free clinics argument). The rebuttals are pretty good, the neg rebuttal is a little strange, but that mostly comes from the fact that the strategy doesn't make a lot of sense. The aff rebuttal is pretty strong, there aren't really new arguments and it's just an explanation of why we're winning our positions, we just need to take the final step to compare the probability, timeframe, magnitude and why our aff is the winning the round.
Impact Comparison Drill--8/12
--really really well worded explanation
--make sure you are a bit more comarpative
--comparative a lot better the 2nd time around—still try to be efficient, tell the story quickly
Topicality Drill--8/13
--really nice way to start out the drill, good job answering specific structure
--don’t need the cp description here, since if your tpicality debate wins
--make sure you impact what they allow
Rebuttal Redo--8/14 (Baxter)
--what is the impact to sickness?
--how is this ordered? It’s a little hard for me to understand the structure that is going on in this speech
--why is helping Africa more important than helping Americans
Practice debate 8/14 (Baxter)
--the cp is not competitive, but it’s a good idea, I think you could use the kritik, some sort of pedagogical or deschooling argument
--the rebuttal needs an overview or story, tell us how you are going to shut the debate down, the overall story of the thing
